How to convince your GP a suppressed TSH is ok?
I do take LDN and wonder if that could be suppressing my
TSH
? Ive read on here for years about desperate people whose GP’s think a suppressed
TSH
means reduce your levothyroxine, and now sadly it’s me.

Frequent injuries when exercising.
TSH
0.01, FT4 16.1, FT3 4.6, both 41% through range. Vit D 85. I find if I do even pilates, ligaments and bursae get easily inflamed. Eg an ankle the physio said would take two weeks to improve is still lingering a year later.

Ferritin Levels/Hair Loss/Thyroid
Good morning I have started to loose my hair and the doctor is insistent its not a change in my thyroid levels, although my
TSH
has changed over the last couple of readings. So I was told to have a ferritin test and take vitamin D, I also take B12.

Exercise and Low Thyroid: Am I doing more harm than good? Advice, please!
I have hypo symptoms, and blood tests show low FT3 and FT4, but normal
TSH
(for reference, last blood test results are below). So far, no doctor or endocrinologist thinks I have any thyroid issue. One of my symptoms has been unexplained weight gain.

Thank you and recent results
I can't understand why the treatment threshold is
TSH
>10, if my T4 is low now I can't imagine how low it would be if my
TSH
doubled.

Request for levo increase
I know I feel ‘normal’ now as my
TSH
is around 1/1.5 and I’ve read on this forum that around 1 is usually where people feel better. I also know it’s better to get full tests etc, but anyway she’s got her
TSH
results back and it’s 4.4.

Mum's battle
They tested her
TSH
in Hospital after I requested a thyroid test. Her
TSH
is 5.92 and her T4 free serum was 13. The endo says the test won’t be accurate because she is suffering from health problems. The posts on this forum have been eye-opening about the links of hypothyroidism to foot pain.

Private blood test
Dr wouldn't increase because
TSH
was low and diabetes endo wouldn't look at my thyroid issues. After a private blood test last year I mentioned t3 to him as mine is low. He said we don't trust private bloods. Can't give t3 but you can see a private endo who will.

Prescribed levothyroxine at last!
My Medichecks results in 2020 were ignored by my GP (serum
TSH
6 range 0.7-4.2) plus presence of large amount of antibodies. NHS ones kept coming back 'normal'. A different GP agreed to test again and to test for antibodies.

herbs to help anxiety
I am wondering whether to try it again but on a smaller dose to see how I feel but nervous about my thyroid issue (high
tsh
and high t4). My other option in valerian root kalms day which might calm me down a bit and I also get a headache. Is valerian root a safer option?

Should I accept dose reduction?
I made the test appointment for six weeks ahead and decided to drop to 75 for the six weeks in an effort to raise my
TSH
. Even though it’s never been over 0.14 on 75mcg. I felt I had less energy on 75 but hey-ho, it would be worth it. It didn’t work. My
TSH
(at 8.15am) was still 0.03.

A friend
She’d only ever been measured for
TSH
and T4 she thought. Her
TSH
had been 100 at one test, she thought. I then got angry because she told me she’d been put off going back to her Endo because he had said she was fat because she was greedy and ate too much. Then she cried again.
